Life's greatest mystery!

An oil painting of a man stood to the left, looking out to the viewer with a quizzical expression while his right hand points to a sunflower. Over the sunflower is a text box that reads "people who say they don't like scones" and the man is labelled as "Me wondering 'How?!'"

You would never know it from watching Fox or Sinclair or scrolling through facebook & twitter, but LA is actually not on fire. Local news has solid on-the ground, fact-based reporting about the protests but much of it is getting drowned out by Trump's propaganda partners. My latest:

Fox News and Sinclair TV stations are busy cheerleading for Trump instead of reporting the facts on the ground in Los Angeles.

Eight years on we remember those who tragically died and all who were affected by the Grenfell Tower fire.

As always on the anniversary, our thoughts are also with the emergency services on scene and in the control room that day.

Not a doctor. Not a scientist. No. A longtime heroin addict and current steroid enthusiast who perjured himself in confirmation hearings in order to pursue a twisted agenda that will kill more Americans than Osama Bin Laden.

There should be a little badge you can wear to let people know that your hair is 'doing a thing' today. I'm not trying to look like this. This isn't who I am. I invite you to accept it as I have and join me in hoping for better tomorrows.

Yes, they can't do this forever.

But prison overcrowding, crumbling infrastructure and an NHS on its knees?

That's the legacy of 14 years of Conservative rule. And not something that can be fixed in 10 months.
